Have you cycled key to see if there are any trouble codes stored?
On,off,on,off,on. Leave in on position (not start) and count any flashes from check engine light. 2 flashes,short pause, and 2 more flashes =22. 3 flashes, pause, 3 more is code 33. etc when you get code 55, that's end of message.Let us know if anything comes up.

What, other than plugs, wires , cap and rotor would be causing loss of power on acceleration, but not all the time,, intermittently.

There is a vacuum advance attached to the distributor. Inside the vacuum advance is a rubber diaphragm that can crack from age an no longer work. Sometimes the vacuum hose that attaches to it may not be getting proper vacuum. This device adjusts your timing when you accelerate. Improper function could cause the problems you describe. Also, a vacuum leak in any of your vacuum system could cause the problem your describing. Too much air intake on take off from a faulty vacuum system could throw off your air fuel mixture on acceleration causing hesitation until the air fuel mixture can catch up which is when the power comes back. Hope this helps.

Saturn sc2 power loss above 50% throttle

Sounds like possible ignition misfire. Go to an autozone or parts store that will scan the engine management system for free and repost what the codes are then we can help further

What cause the engine to stumble and then stall w/ charge and oil pressure indicators coming on

1) Val adjustment is set too tight
2) engine ha worn camshaft lobe.bent push rods or worn valve lifters
3) loss of power in one or more cylinders due to defects in ignition system
4) intake manifold system is leaking
5) air cleaner dirty
6) leaky valves.
7) fuel mixture is too lean or too rich
8) fuel pump is defective.
God bless you

I have an intermittent problem with engine power loss/lack of acceleration in my 1999 chevy Lumina. 3.8 L vin K. problem only develops on warm/hot days after sitting in standstill traffic idling for long...

Normally that would be classic vapor lock. But I don't know how that could happen since fuel injection recirculates so much? I try to think of how gas tank vent valve could do this and also draw a blank. Leaving the fan. It is electric and possibly not working? It is mechanical and have a bad clutch?

Check engine light comes on and car idle's and drives with a shudder around 2500 rpms. First time check engine light came on put it on computer and said it was misfiring, so changed plugs and plug wires...

I found this; if it helps.
The injectors need to be cleaned, if an engine is experiencing any of the classic symptoms of dirty injectors, such as lean misfire, rough idle, hesitation and stumbling on light acceleration, a loss of power, and higher hydrocarbon (HC) and carbon monoxide (CO) emissions.
Lean misfire may also trigger a misfire code and turn on the Check Engine light on 1996 and newer vehicles with OBD II systems. The code often will be a P0300 random misfire code, or you may find one or more misfire codes for individual cylinders, depending on which injectors are most affected.
